Jebb's Project 1959 GMC

First of all, I want to give you all a little back ground. My GMC adventure started in 1987 when I was in 3rd grade. My Dad picked up a super rare 1959 Short Box Fleet Option pick up. It was used many years ago as a parts truck and had been left for dead in a wash. He called me in sick that day and we took a few hour trip to Ajo Arizona to pick it up. He paid $200 with enough scattered parts to make a truck out of. We were uneducated about the Fleet option and threw many rare parts away and sold them cheap at swap meets. By 1994 it had a Camaro subframe and 283 Th-350 combo with a fresh coat of Yellow paint and was the nicest I have ever seen it. It was used as daily driver and work truck for the next 9 years or so. When it was pretty well beat it was given to me as a runner. I drove it as it was for about a year prior to tearing it down to give it the full frame up. After a few years of parts collecting I am ready to begin.

Here she is (don't laugh or puke okay)
